More on Age
“When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it's a sure sign you're getting old.”
“In youth it is the outward aspect of things that most engages us; while in age, thought or reflection is the predominating qualityof the mind. Hence, youth is the time for poetry, and age is more inclined to philosophy. In practical affairs it is the same: a man shapes his resolutions in youth more by the impression that the outward world makes upon him; whereas, when he is old, it is thought that determines his actions.”
“Maturity does not always come with age; sometimes age comes alone.”

“The man who goes up in a balloon does not feel as if he were ascending; he only sees the earth sinking deeper below him.”

“Sanity ... had it ever been more than a convention -- a comfortable set of blinkers, an agreed mode of wishful thinking, which excluded from our view the full strangeness and malevolence of the universe we are compelled to inhabit?”
